The PGA of America clearly likes to have all of its ducks in a row and allow itself plenty of time to plan for future Championships.
After the 106th edition of the event comes to a close on Sunday, attention will quickly turn to next year’s edition, when the PGA Championship heads back to Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina.
A number of other future venues have also been locked in. In fact, we know where the tournament will be played for several years to come.
2025: Quail Hollow Club, Charlotte, North Carolina
A 24-year-old Justin Thomas wins at Quail Hollow
The PGA Championship will return to Quail Hollow for the second time in 2025. The course is well known to PGA Tour fans as host of the Wells Fargo Championship each year.
Justin Thomas was victorious here in May 2017, when he finished two shots clear of Francesco Molinari, Louis Oosthuizen and Patrick Reed.
Founded in 1959, the course, which was originally designed by famed golf course architect George Cobb, is widely regarded as one of the finest layouts in the southeastern United States.
2026: Aronimink Golf Club, Newtown Square, Pennsylvania
Sei Young Kim wins at Aronimink during the pandemic
Donald Ross-designed Aronimink will be the first venue to stage each of the PGA of America’s three rotating Major Championships (PGA Championship, KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship and KPMG Women’s PGA Championship).
Sei Young Kim won the 2020 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship when there were no fans present because of the Covid pandemic.
It will be Aronimink's first PGA Championship in 62 years, after Gary Player's 1962 triumph. The course has hosted three PGA Tour events this century, most recently at the 2018 BMW Championship won by Keegan Bradley.
2027 & 2034: PGA Frisco, Frisco, Texas

The PGA will be bringing two Championships to the Gil Hanse-designed Fields Ranch East Course at PGA Frisco, which will run more than 7,600 yards from the tips.
According to Golf Digest, the Ryder Cup will also likely visit Texas further down the line. Frisco is the new HQ for the PGA of America.
It hosted the 2023 Senior PGA Championship, which was won by Steve Stricker.
2028: The Olympic Club, Lake Course, San Francisco, California
Webb Simpson conquers The Olympic Club in 2012
The Olympic Club boasts a storied history and a long list of champions. Although it will be the first time that the PGA Championship visits the Lake Course, many will remember it for its US Open victors, with Webb Simpson being the last of these in 2012.
It saw Yuka Saso win the 2021 US Women's Open and has a couple of other very big events coming in the future, too.
The club will play host to the 2028 Olympic Games Golf competition as well as the 2033 Ryder Cup.
2029: Baltusrol Golf Club, Lower Course, Springfield, New Jersey
Phil Mickelson en route to winning the 2005 PGA Championship
The 2029 PGA Championship will be staged on Baltusrol’s famed Lower Course, which is an A.W. Tillinghast design.
This will be Baltusrol’s third PGA Championship, with Phil Mickelson (2005) and Jimmy Walker (2016) both enjoying victories at the historic club.
Ruoning Yin won the 2023 KPMG Women's PGA Championship at Baltusrol.
2030: Congressional Country Club Club, Bethesda, Maryland

The Blue Course has already hosted three US Opens and a PGA Championship.
Extensively renovated by Andrew Green in 2020-21, it will host eight upcoming PGA of America events, including two National Championships, five Major Championships and the 2037 Ryder Cup.
Congressional famously was where Rory McIlroy captured his first Major title, when he won the 2011 US Open by a huge eight stroke margin in a record-breaking week.
2023: The Ocean Course Kiawah Island, South Carolina
The demanding Ocean Course at Kiawah Island is set to hold its third PGA Championship in 2031 after a couple of big name winners in its first two hostings.
Rory McIlroy won his first Wanamaker Trophy by eight strokes at Kiawah in 2012, with Phil Mickelson becoming the oldest man to win a Major in 2021.
The course also hosted the 1991 Ryder Cup, dubbed as the 'War on the Shore' where the USA won 14.5-13.5 after Bernhard Langer's agonising missed six-footer on the final green.
